Though Lincoln Jones got what most insiders would call a catastrophically late start in ballet, he is now the artistic director of “one of America’s most adventurous and exciting ballet companies” (Classical KUSC). Outsiders brings Jones' irreverent, iconoclastic approach to one of our most revered art forms, backed by his encyclopedic knowledge, immense passion, and his gift for making “the most complex issues seem like child's play” (The Los Angeles Times). An inspiring, enlightening, and often humorous conversation for the culturally curious. New episode every other Tuesday.
Lincoln Jones, Elise Filo, and American Contemporary Ballet
